# MySQL on Amazon RDS versions For MySQL, version numbers are organized as version = X.Y.Z. In Amazon RDS terminology, X.Y denotes the major version, and Z is the minor version number. For Amazon RDS implementations, a version change is considered major if the major version number changes—for example, going from version 5.7 to 8.0. A version change is considered minor if only the minor version number changes—for example, going from version 8.0.32 to 8.0.34. **Topics** + [ ## Supported MySQL minor versions on Amazon RDS ](#MySQL.Concepts.VersionMgmt.Supported) + [ ## Supported MySQL major versions on Amazon RDS ](#MySQL.Concepts.VersionMgmt.ReleaseCalendar) + [ ## Amazon RDS Extended Support versions for RDS for MySQL ](#mysql-extended-support-releases) + [ ## Working with the Database Preview environment ](#mysql-working-with-the-database-preview-environment) + [ ## MySQL version 9.5 in the Database Preview environment ](#mysql-preview-environment-version-9-5) + [ ## MySQL version 9.4 in the Database Preview environment ](#mysql-preview-environment-version-9-4) + [ ## MySQL version 9.3 in the Database Preview environment ](#mysql-preview-environment-version-9-3) + [ ## Deprecated versions for Amazon RDS for MySQL ](#MySQL.Concepts.DeprecatedVersions) ## Supported MySQL minor versions on Amazon RDS Amazon RDS currently supports the following minor versions of MySQL. **Note** Amazon RDS Extended Support isn't available for minor versions. The following table shows the minor versions of MySQL 8.4 that Amazon RDS currently supports. | MySQL engine version | Community release date | RDS release date | RDS end of standard support date | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 8.4.8 | 20 January 2026 | 3 February 2026 | 3 February 2027 | | 8.4.7 | 21 October 2025 | 13 November 2025 | 30 November 2026 | | 8.4.6 | 22 July 2025 | 1 August 2025 | 30 September 2026 | | 8.4.5 | 15 April 2025 | 29 April 2025 | 30 September 2026 | | 8.4.4 | 21 January 2025 | 19 February 2025 | 31 May 2026 | | 8.4.3 | 15 October 2024 | 21 November 2024 | 31 May 2026 | The following table shows the minor versions of MySQL 8.0 that Amazon RDS currently supports. **Note** Minor versions can reach end of standard support before major versions do. For example, minor version 8.0.28 reached its end of standard support date on March 28, 2024 while major version 8.0 reaches this date on July 31, 2026. RDS will support additional 8.0.\$1 minor versions that the MySQL community releases between these dates. We recommend that you upgrade to the latest available minor version as often as possible for all major versions. | MySQL engine version | Community release date | RDS release date | RDS end of standard support date | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 8.0.45 | 20 January 2026 | 3 February 2026 | 31 July 2026 | | 8.0.44 | 21 October 2025 | 13 November 2025 | 31 July 2026 | | 8.0.43 | 22 July 2025 | 1 August 2025 | 31 July 2026 | | 8.0.42 | 15 April 2025 | 29 April 2025 | 31 July 2026 | | 8.0.41 | 21 January 2025 | 19 February 2025 | 31 May 2026 | | 8.0.40 | 15 October 2024 | 13 November 2024 | 31 May 2026 | The following table shows the minor versions of MySQL 5.7 that are available under Amazon RDS Extended Support. **Note** Minor versions can reach end of Extended Support before major versions do. For example, minor version 5.7.44-RDS.20240529 reaches its end of Extended Support date in September 2025 while major version 5.7 reaches this date on February 28, 2027. RDS will generate and release additional 5.7.44-RDS.xxyyzz minor versions between these dates. We recommend that you upgrade to the latest available minor version as often as possible for all major versions. | MySQL engine version | Community release date | RDS release date | RDS end of Extended Support date | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 5.7.44-RDS.20260212\$1 | Not applicable | 26 February 2026 | 28 February 2027 | | 5.7.44-RDS.20251212\$1 | Not applicable | 12 December 2025 | 30 December 2026 | | 5.7.44-RDS.20250818\$1 | Not applicable | 15 September 2025 | 30 September 2026 | | 5.7.44-RDS.20250508\$1 | Not applicable | 20 May 2025 | 30 September 2026 | | 5.7.44-RDS.20250213\$1 | Not applicable | 12 March 2025 | 30 September 2026 | | 5.7.44-RDS.20250103\$1 | Not applicable | 13 February 2025 | 31 May 2026 | \$1 MySQL Community retired major version 5.7 and won't be releasing new minor versions. This is a minor version that Amazon RDS released with critical security patches and bug fixes for MySQL 5.7 databases that are covered under RDS Extended Support. For more information about these minor versions, see [Amazon RDS Extended Support versions for RDS for MySQL](#mysql-extended-support-releases). For more information about RDS Extended Support, see [Amazon RDS Extended Support with Amazon RDS](extended-support.md). You can specify any currently supported MySQL version when creating a new DB instance. You can specify the major version (such as MySQL 5.7), and any supported minor version for the specified major version. If no version is specified, Amazon RDS defaults to a supported version, typically the most recent version. If a major version is specified but a minor version is not, Amazon RDS defaults to a recent release of the major version you have specified. To see a list of supported versions, as well as defaults for newly created DB instances, run the [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/rds/describe-db-engine-versions.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/rds/describe-db-engine-versions.html) AWS CLI command. For example, to list the supported engine versions for RDS for MySQL, run the following CLI command: ``` aws rds describe-db-engine-versions --engine mysql --query "*[].{Engine:Engine,EngineVersion:EngineVersion}" --output text ``` The default MySQL version might vary by AWS Region. To create a DB instance with a specific minor version, specify the minor version during DB instance creation. You can determine the default minor version for an AWS Region by running the following AWS CLI command: ``` aws rds describe-db-engine-versions --default-only --engine mysql --engine-version major_engine_version --region region --query "*[].{Engine:Engine,EngineVersion:EngineVersion}" --output text ``` Replace *major\$1engine\$1version* with the major engine version, and replace *region* with the AWS Region. For example, the following AWS CLI command returns the default MySQL minor engine version for the 5.7 major version and the US West (Oregon) AWS Region (us-west-2): ``` aws rds describe-db-engine-versions --default-only --engine mysql --engine-version 5.7 --region us-west-2 --query "*[].{Engine:Engine,EngineVersion:EngineVersion}" --output text ``` With Amazon RDS, you control when to upgrade your MySQL instance to a new major version supported by Amazon RDS. You can maintain compatibility with specific MySQL versions, test new versions with your application before deploying in production, and perform major version upgrades at times that best fit your schedule. When automatic minor version upgrade is enabled, your DB instance will be upgraded automatically to new MySQL minor versions as they are supported by Amazon RDS. This patching occurs during your scheduled maintenance window. You can modify a DB instance to enable or disable automatic minor version upgrades. If you opt out of automatically scheduled upgrades, you can manually upgrade to a supported minor version release by following the same procedure as you would for a major version update. For information, see [Upgrading a DB instance engine version](USER_UpgradeDBInstance.Upgrading.md). Amazon RDS currently supports the following upgrades for major versions of the MySQL database engine: + MySQL 5.7 to MySQL 8.0 + MySQL 8.0 to MySQL 8.4 Because major version upgrades involve some compatibility risk, they do not occur automatically; you must make a request to modify the DB instance. You should thoroughly test any upgrade before upgrading your production instances. For information about upgrading a MySQL DB instance, see [Upgrades of the RDS for MySQL DB engine](USER_UpgradeDBInstance.MySQL.md). You can test a DB instance against a new version before upgrading by creating a DB snapshot of your existing DB instance, restoring from the DB snapshot to create a new DB instance, and then initiating a version upgrade for the new DB instance. You can then experiment safely on the upgraded clone of your DB instance before deciding whether or not to upgrade your original DB instance. ### MySQL minor versions on Amazon RDS For the changes that the MySQL community made to the minor versions, see [Critical Patch Updates, Security Alerts and Bulletins](https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/) on the Oracle website.

This release contains patches for the following CVEs: + [CVE-2024-20963](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-20963) ## Working with the Database Preview environment In July 2023, Oracle announced a new release model for MySQL. This model includes two types of releases: Innovation Releases and LTS releases. Amazon RDS makes MySQL Innovation Releases available in the RDS Preview environment. To learn more about the MySQL Innovation releases, see [ Introducing MySQL Innovation and Long-Term Support (LTS) versions](https://blogs.oracle.com/mysql/post/introducing-mysql-innovation-and-longterm-support-lts-versions). RDS for MySQL DB instances in the Database Preview environment are functionally similar to other RDS for MySQL DB instances. However, you can't use the Database Preview environment for production workloads. Preview environments have the following limitations: + Amazon RDS deletes all DB instances 60 days after you create them, along with any backups and snapshots. + You can only use General Purpose SSD and Provisioned IOPS SSD storage. + You can't get help from Support with DB instances. Instead, you can post your questions to the AWS‐managed Q&A community, [AWS re:Post](https://repost.aws/tags/TAsibBK6ZeQYihN9as4S_psg/amazon-relational-database-service). + You can't copy a snapshot of a DB instance to a production environment. The following options are supported by the preview. + You can create DB instances using db.m6i, db.r6i, db.m6g, db.m5, db.t3, db.r6g, and db.r5 DB instance classes. For more information about RDS instance classes, see [DB instance classes](Concepts.DBInstanceClass.md). + You can use both single-AZ and multi-AZ deployments. + You can use standard MySQL dump and load functions to export databases from or import databases to the Database Preview environment. ### Features not supported in the Database Preview environment The following features aren't available in the Database Preview environment: + Cross-Region snapshot copy + Cross-Region read replicas + RDS Proxy ### Creating a new DB instance in the Database Preview environment You can create a DB instance in the Database Preview environment using the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, or RDS API. #### Console **To create a DB instance in the Database Preview environment** 1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Amazon RDS console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/rds/](https://console.aws.amazon.com/rds/). 1. Choose **Dashboard** from the navigation pane. 1. In the **Dashboard** page, locate the **Database Preview Environment** section, as shown in the following image. ![\[The Database Preview Environment section with link in the Amazon RDS console.\]](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/images/preview-environment-dashboard.png) You can navigate directly to the [Database Preview environment](https://us-east-2.console.aws.amazon.com/rds-preview/home?region=us-east-2#).
